Auction result misses estimated price range
In December 2006 a collector was able to acquire the work A rocky landscape with travellers on a path by Josua de Grave for GBP 780.00 (€ 1,157.62). This price was achieved in the auction Master Drawings from the Oppé Collection at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Josua de Grave have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Shepherds With Their Flock Watering In A Classical Landscape in September 2007 with an auction result of EUR 8,050.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Dezember 2006 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit A rocky landscape with travellers on a path von Josua de Grave für GBP 780,00 (€ 1.157,62) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Master Drawings from the Oppé Collection bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Josua de Grave auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Shepherds With Their Flock Watering In A Classical Landscape im September 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 8.050,00.
